We can supply the summer door as an optional extra with the relevant chicken coop or henhouse (at an additional cost). It consists of an aluminium frame profile with electro-galvanised wire mesh stretched across it.
The summer door can be used in place of the standard coop door during the warmer months. This ensures better ventilation in the coop without compromising the safety of your chickens. You can see an example in the pictures.
To ensure your chickens don’t get cold in winter, our chicken coops and henhouses are thoroughly insulated (optional at an additional cost).
Our chicken coops are manufactured in the same way as a prefabricated house with a stud frame. On the outside, there is a solid wooden wall with profiled boards (12.5 mm tongue and groove), and on the inside, solid wood fibre boards (OSB, 10 mm). The cavity between the two layers is then filled with 40 mm thick polystyrene insulation, ensuring adequate thermal insulation.
The photo here illustrates this.
We keep receiving enquiries about the support frame. That is why we have included this topic here in our FAQs.
It is 75 centimetres high and is fitted underneath the chicken coop. The stand frame allows you to raise your chicken coop to a higher level. With the Berger and Berger Plus chicken coops, the stand frame also allows you to build an aviary – specially made by us for our chicken coops – either in front of or behind the coop. The stand frame is supplied in its natural state, unpainted.
The picture shows the support frame for our chicken coops.
At the request of our customers, we have also added an aviary to our range.
This aviary is suitable for our chicken coops, as it measures 1.85 x 1.85 x 1.85 metres. It can be fitted to the Berger and Berger Plus chicken coops using a support frame. (Unfortunately, the aviary does not fit the Arent chicken coop.)
It is also worth noting that the aviary can be extended by 92.5 centimetres in depth at a time. You can purchase the aviary and the extensions separately or as an add-on option to our chicken coops.
